    Best USA friendly book for tennis, w/parlays?

    Hi guys, I'm new to tennis but an old degenerate. I use a local via website which offers tennis odds but no parlays. I've had a pretty good run but would like the option of parlaying some of the big favorites.

    Any help and of course a few winners are most appreciated

    5Dimes is best. BookMaker is 2nd.

    5d is a good tennis book, but they have very good parlay defense. There are better options for parlay players, if you are regularly making limit bets.

    Betonline is also an option. They have totals, handicaps and moneylines - other than 5Dimes, I think they are the only US friendly book that has all that. 5Dimes obvious #1 for all tennis options as far as US players IMO.

    Thanks for all the advice people!

    Not sure what you mean by "good parlay defense" Justin, can you explain?

    I check your thread regularly EaglesPhan, good stuff in there!

    Parlay defense. Software that limits a book's exposure to +EV bets on parlays.

    For example, if 5d allows a max bet of 500 on a match, any wagers in parlays or straight count against that limit. Most books don't do this. So if you like a play (or 20 plays), you never straight bet them. You put them in round-robin parlays. 5d's software prevents this from working (and oddly enough, so does SIA). I don't think any other book on SBR's recommended list does this.
